2130 * @writepage: function called for each page
2131 * @data: data passed to writepage function
2132 *
2133 * If a page is already under I/O, write_cache_pages() skips it, even
2134 * if it's dirty. This is desirable behaviour for memory-cleaning writeback,
2135 * but it is INCORRECT for data-integrity system calls such as fsync(). fsync()
2136 * and msync() need to guarantee that all the data which was dirty at the time
2137 * the call was made get new I/O started against them. If wbc->sync_mode is
2138 * WB_SYNC_ALL then we were called for data integrity and we must wait for
2139 * existing IO to complete.
2140 *
2141 * To avoid livelocks (when other process dirties new pages), we first tag
2142 * pages which should be written back with TOWRITE tag and only then start
2143 * writing them. For data-integrity sync we have to be careful so that we do
2144 * not miss some pages (e.g., because some other process has cleared TOWRITE
2145 * tag we set). The rule we follow is that TOWRITE tag can be cleared only
2146 * by the process clearing the DIRTY tag (and submitting the page for IO).
2147 *
2148 * To avoid deadlocks between range_cyclic writeback and callers that hold
2149 * pages in PageWriteback to aggregate IO until write_cache_pages() returns,
2150 * we do not loop back to the start of the file. Doing so causes a page
2151 * lock/page writeback access order inversion - we should only ever lock
2152 * multiple pages in ascending page->index order, and looping back to the start
2153 * of the file violates that rule and causes deadlocks.
